Introduction

I have worked as a therapist for four years and worked as a high school counselor for 6 years prior to becoming a therapist. I work with clients 14 years and older and specialize in trauma, grief, anxiety, OCD, depression, PTSD, relationship struggles, life transitions, and more. We will work together using a combination of modalities that fit your needs including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing), ERP, Client Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, CBT, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness and more. I provide an warm, open, and non-judgmental environment to create a path of hope in the journey of healing.
